What’s Cupiclaw?

In Cupiclaw, you play as Morris, a guy down on his luck who’s lost his engagement ring and doesn’t have the cash to replace it. His brilliant plan? Win a new one by clawing his way through a multi-floor arcade. Starting from the bargain bin floors, you’ll grab prizes, stack combos, and take on chaotic claw machines until you reach the top—where the ring (and redemption) awaits.
